About Auckland Park

There are 31 Regional Parks within the Auckland region, they feature beaches, bush, wildlife, as well as sport and recreational facilities.

The Auckland Domain next to the CBD is the most popular park. It is a ctually a combination of parks namely: Albert Park, Myers Park, Victoria Park, and Western Park.

Auckland city is located on a volcanic zone called Auckland Volcanic Field. This includes dozens of volcanic cones that stand above Auckland suburbs that offer areas of parkland. Popular parks on volcanic peaks include: Mt Eden Gardens on Mt Eden, Cornwall Park on One Tree Hill, and North Head with its fortifications, tunnels, and stunning walks and views.

The Auckland Botanic Gardens south in Manurewa are well worth a visit as is Western Springs which is attached to MOTAT Museum with Auckland Zoo located further west. Devonport, Rangitoto Island, Tiritiri Matangi, and Waiheke Island all have reserves that can be accessed via ferry from Circular Quay.

The Waitakere Ranges Regional Park to the west of Auckland offers large areas of native bush with some great views over Auckland city, Manakau Harbour, and the western coastline.
